# Replace iFrame?

 * Since there seems to be no simple solution to resizing an iframe, your plugin/
   shortcode might work, except I have no idea how.
 * I’m trying to just grab a webpage [http://dmiworks.com/announce.html](http://dmiworks.com/announce.html)
   and insert it into a WordPress page. It seems it will size the page according
   to the content. Nevertheless, I am lost. Am I barking up the wrong tree? Thanks

 * Bob,
    Thanks for the login to your site.
 * This is what I got to work best on that page using the visual editor:
    `[remote_get
   url="http://dmiworks.com/announce.html" start='<style ' stop='</body>' replace
   ='src="' with='src="http://dmiworks.com/' replace2='href="' with2='href="http://
   dmiworks.com/']`

 * Aw heck. I coulda figured that out 🙂
 * Is the plugin change that I made, correct?
    Can I use the plugin on a real site?
   Or would you say, it’s not ready for prime-time?

 * Bob,
    I fixed the error handling on line 71 and released an update so you can
   download this new version on any site. Any fetching or parsing errors should 
   now be reported at the top of you admin page.
 * Keep in mind that the results of you page are dependant on the page you are curling.
   Also, this plugin caches the result for for 24 hours to minimise fetch request
   that cause slow page loads.
 * Aloha, Eli
